> Mina sshd should implement server-sig-algs to report signature algorithms.
> Without the daemon sending server-sig-algs, clients fall back to ssh-rsa per
> RFC8332
> {quote}When authenticating with an RSA key against a server that does not
> implement the "server-sig-algs" extension, clients MAY default to an
> "ssh-rsa" signature to avoid authentication penalties.
> {quote}
> Some distributions, notably Fedora 33, have set default system policy to
> disallow insecure algorithms such as ssh-rsa. They thus can not find a
> suitable signature algorithm and fail to log in. Quite a high level of
> knowledge is required to override the default system cryptography policy, and
> it can be quite confusing because the user's ssh-key works in many other
> contexts (against openssh servers, etc.). For full details see discussion in
> SSHD-1118.
> For example, connecting to a recent openssh server I see something like
> {quote}debug1: kex_input_ext_info:
> server-sig-algs=<ssh-ed25519,[email protected],ssh-rsa,rsa-sha2-256,rsa-sha2-512,ssh-dss,ecdsa-sha2-nistp256,ecdsa-sha2-nistp384,ecdsa-sha2-nistp521,[email protected]>
> {quote}
> I believe that Mina SSHD does support these more secure signature algorithms,
> but because they aren't reported the client won't use them.
